If it's reading 12volts while running I'd guess your alternator is probably bad (which would explain the heavy steering if the alternator pulley is locking up putting drag on the engine/belt), it should be closer to 14volts. I would ignore all codes until the voltage is corrected, electronics can be sensitive to that and cause false codes.
